An Empath's Rest | Your Nightly Prayer

Father, when someone in my circle of friends or even a member of the wider church body is hurting, we can be so moved by their grief and pain that we lose sleep. Show us how to pray well for them: place the right prayers on our hearts; nurture our trust that you will meet them where they are. Help us lift these people up to you and step back as they realize with amazement that you truly care for them. You truly know what it feels like to go through what they are going through, “For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses.” (Hebrews 4:15). You know, and you have the power to heal their hurt. Thank you, Jesus, amen.
